It is common to hear in any circle the word crisis and their impact on the life of the country and to each person’s. Observing the behavior of markets, bags of values, salaries, etc., it is clear that there is no easy solution or short term, and in this context one day I found myself with a tree of Jacaranda (Jacaranda mimosifolia) who gave me a lesson applicable to these moments of social and personal crisis. In various countries of Latin America the jacarandas (jacarandas, trees or gualandayes) offers each year a gift to the places where they grow, with its beautiful flowers in violet tones, in addition to the medicinal uses of its leaves, that steamed them have antiseptic and antibacterial effect. The bark is astringent, though not in doses that support its industrial use (1). On this occasion, its growth pattern also gives us an example of how to deal with difficult times. On a Street South of the city of Mexico had a jacaranda as many trees (and as all being young human), growing up in conditions that had touched him. One day, when passing I noticed that jacaranda and another tree that stood beside him had been cut to its base.

Already some months have passed since that day, and recently I was able to see the jacaranda still has a few small shoots. As you can see on the picture, this scene made me move the current situation in that tree to any person individually, and this has inspired this article. How many times we have sought to achieve some goal, whether a business, a family loving and attached or a working position, to then discover that things were not as we had wished. How would an average person react? Doing a very simple calculation, it seems that the jacaranda photo has no more than ten years of life when it was cut by thus legitimately agree people who probably planted it. What would make a person who is dismissed from her job after ten years of? service? The term of a marriage to the ten years of marriage? The nature of this jacaranda is the sustain life, follow tillering, regardless how long has life or what he has done so far.

Everytime I find new shoots, tender, small, I see the momentum of this tree to live one more day, because perhaps this day will give you another hope and you can live or perhaps tomorrow. In any case, for her it’s worth all keep trying until all the forces that fit. In my psychotherapeutic practice I see how many people need this impulse to get out of a depression or loss of a loved one, and I hope that these brief lines help them continue to seek life options, one day, back to flourish. And what happened to the tree that was cut along with the jacaranda? He died several weeks ago (although also attempted to live), why the title of this article is for who until today is still looking to the sky without lose hope.
